When was the last time or most memorable time you were helped out or helped a total stranger?
Two days ago I when to the petrol station to get fuel and also check my tyres.
I saw they were low so started pumping them up whilst the guy that came after me had stopped to buy some drinks from the station and then couldn't get his car started again.
So I helped jump start his car for him.

I had just gotten off the bus and looked in my bag and i couldnt find my phone. Oh No! I'd left it on the bus. Now i was crying and kinda shouting at my bag and this guy came over ot me to see if i was ok. i told him what happened and he drove me all the way to the bus depo to get it back:D and he told me a story on the way. Its kinda like the pass it on thing.
When he went traveling he left his addressbook in a cab, and the cab driver went all round the area looking for him.
So now i owe some random person a favour.
not that.....memorable I guess but I've been like in need of money etc when I run away and I knew what it was like....
It's kind of embarrassing having your stuff fall everywhere so I thought I should tell him.
Ever notice how when you do help someone they almost look at you as if you are mad?
I find that with I've helped people that look at me kinda like.. WTF? Prberly because they were expecting a young lad to kick ''em up the arse or laugh.
I think she was pleased for the help, was surprised no one else bothered to help her.
Then when I got ot the top of the station I went to get a trainmap and then walk out and there she was againstruggling with the final few stairs to street level and again no one helped her so I gave her bag another lift.
